Supportive culture and strong growth opportunities

Business Outlook

Pros

- Highly collaborative environment: people genuinely support each other’s growth. Proxima also has a great "community" structure internally to also support that - Progression based on your own journey, not a competition in that sense - Strong, inclusive office culture: monthly socials, coffee chats, Tuesday breakfasts; Sports and activities that you can also get involved (e.g. touch rugby ) - Mix of Proxima and Bain-led clients, offering varied experiences - Focus on workload management (timesheets encouraged) - Good flexibility around working from home (client-dependent) - Strong development opportunities, increasing as the company grows - Training has improved significantly, including intensive but fun training abroad - Leadership actively adapting processes to support rapid growth

Cons

- Project quality is subjective, so it can be hit and miss. However, I feel this is common in any consultancy, really - Compensation is lower than some consultancies, though offset by a better work-life balance
